Cacotoa once again hits the the bullseye on the target. In other words, in terms of combat, once again this map is excellent.
Since "caco" is in the name, expect a few cacodemons and pain elementals this time. And speaking of pain elementals, this is the only time they show up on the normal 6 maps of overboard, which is kinda expected of Cyriak.
I have noticed that Cyriak doesn't really use pain elementals all that much in his projects. Wads such as Going Down and this wad don't have many pain elemental encounters that are memorable for me. Oh well, guess that leaves lost souls out of the books for this one.
This map isn't really too hard if you know what to expect, and if you use the invulnerability wisely. Cyriak is also fairly nice with ammo, but he doesn't overflow you with it unlike in most slaughter maps.
This map wasn't too much trouble for me. I manage to get through about 90% of my attempts without dying. What probably makes it hard is how it is a timed battle, where revenants, imps, hell knights and more begin to emerge as you take down the enemies. Luckily he gives you enough time to the point it never becomes overwhelming.
Yet again, this is another bowl, another strike from Mouldy. being over half way done with this was definitely makes me feel greedy on demos, since I basically recorded these within less than 2 weeks.
Oh well...
